I have the non-adjustable BMR lower control arm (TCA019) with relocation bracket (CAB005). I'll torque the three bolts down and all is great for a while. It feels amazing, it rides wonderfully (dare I say better than stock), feels tight & well planted, etc..
However, after the very first moderate launch (really anything that makes the rear squat decently) the car feels completely different. It bounces around a lot (think cut spring low-rider), wheel hops a lot, will lose traction easily, etc. While the bolts don't seem loose, I re-torque them anyway. All is great again till the next launch.
Last week I took the bolts out, applied a touch of thread lock, and reinstalled. Took it out tonight and as usual it was great until that first launch.
My torque wrench is pretty old. so I may pick up a new one just to see if mine is out of calibration. Besides that, anyone else experience something like this or know what I may be doing wrong?
Should I weld the relocation brackets? Would an aftermarket upper control arm to help prevent this?
